Not all animals with the word fish in their names count as fish. |
Though their names may suggest otherwise, cuttlefish, starfish, and jellyfish aren’t actually fish. Generally-speaking, fishes must have skulls, gills, and fins. Surprisingly, though, not all fishes have proper spines. |

Even Catfish are finicky |
Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

As we continue progressing through the later weeks of the spring season we are enjoying ideal
weather conditions, sunny skies with high temperatures ranging in the upper 80s to about 90
degrees. Winds have still been a bit more of a factor than we would expect during this time
frame and ocean swells have increased as they normal do this month, which also in turn brings
crowds of surfers to the region. Ocean temperature in the direction towards San Jose del Cabo
and further north has been in the 76 to 78 degree range, while the Pacific has been cooler, at
68 to 70 degrees.
We are still seeing limited numbers of anglers, probably more surfers in town than fishermen.
There have been good supplies of both sardina and caballito, a few mullet and moonfish mixed
in. We do expect to see the main migration of mullet to move in soon, as this is the time of
year, this will also bring in the run of larger sized roosterfish.
This past week we saw the billfish action become more scattered, as offshore wind did not help
this out. Most local charter boats were concentrated on inshore areas and on the high spots to
the north, near San Luis and La Fortuna. This is where anglers found an assortment of bottom
species while drift fishing with yo-yo jigs and various baitfish. Most common fish they were
hooking into were red snapper, yellow snapper, spotted rose snapper, bonita, amberjack, leopard
grouper, pompano and triggerfish. Some of these amberjack were well over 40 pounds. Most boats
were bringing in about a dozen fish in combination, all very good eating.
Only a few yellowfin tuna seen during the week, one weighed in at 83 lb. Same deal with dorado,
only a scattering of these fish were brought in, a couple of these were over 20 lb.
Closer to shore there were still a decent number of sierra and they were nicer sized specimens,
ranging 5 to 12 lb. Also good numbers of jack crevalle and the season’s first wave of
roosterfish starting to appear, the roosters using peak in our area later in June.
Good Fishing, Eric
